1941 Frozen Front

1941 Frozen Front is a turn-based World War II strategy game on a hex grid, fought as Germany or the Soviets. It is made by HandyGames, and it is the sort of war game that rewards patience over bravado: the side that thinks one turn ahead usually wins.

Pick a side, look at the map, and try not to send your tanks somewhere clever they cannot come back from.

How to Play 1941 Frozen Front?

Lead the German forces on their push east, or defend Russia on the Soviet side. Battles play out in turns on a hex grid, and both sides get infantry, artillery, tanks and warplanes. Move your troops into position, attack the enemy's units and complete each mission's objective.

Between the shooting there is a lot of housekeeping, and that is where battles are won. You can bring in reinforcements, repair your tanks, fortify your defensive positions, camouflage units and call in your air units to bomb the enemy. The campaign is a run of missions that grow harder as you go, and if you have a friend nearby, two players can fight it out on the same computer.

Tips and Tricks:

  • Repair before you advance: A damaged tank is still a tank if you fix it, and a wreck if you do not.
  • Fortify what you hold: Dug in positions make the enemy pay for every hex.
  • Use every unit type: Artillery and warplanes soften up targets before the tanks roll in.

What Are the Controls for 1941 Frozen Front?
